Dear parents,
Assalam Alaikum!
Assalam Alaikum!
Our students are enjoying the new grass, alhamdulillah! The installation was completed last Wednesday and since then the students were able to play on the turf. This project was made possible due to the donations of Granada students and their families from the Walk-a-Thon (May 2012). I would like to acknowledge a Granada parent who donated materials and his construction crew to work on this project saving us around $9K. May Allah reward you, Br. Abdul-Majid Garfinkel (father of Aleema - 5B and Haseeb - 3B).
More good news! The following students are the Spelling Bee winners in grades 5-8. Congratulations to:
- Fariha Ahmed (5A)
- Naimah Khan (5B)
- Rizq Khateeb (6A)
- Nabeel Sabzwari (7A)
- Sabreen Abdelrahman (8A)
The
next competition will be among the five class finalists to determine the
school Spelling Bee Champion. The event is scheduled next week on Thursday,
November 15.
Last week grades 2-8 students had an
opportunity to learn about the two main presidential candidates and to
vote for one of them. We introduced this activity to educate our
students about the democratic process and the importance of their
participation in the election. The majority of our students voted for
President Barak Obama for another term.
